Method 1: Using Netility (1) Use “Download Firmware” function under Netility to update it. Method 2: Using FTP Windows FTP is another way to upload the latest firmware into NetProbe Lite. You can also use other FTP client software to do this. In the following example, NetProbe Lite IP address is 192.168.50.179 (1) Click “Start” on Windows taskbar, then “Run..”, type in “ftp 192.168.50.179” (2) Click “OK” (3) The systems will requests for your User Name and Password. Enter “admin” for User Name and press “Enter”. The default password is left blank. Once the User Name and Password is verified, the server will response with “230 OK” to indicate that Login is successful. If you enter the wrong Username or Password, the server will response with “530 Not Logged in”. (4) FTP commands: NetProbe Lite User ‘s Manual -31- Appendix A: Methods to Update NetProbe Lite Firmware ls : This command request the server to list all files and sub-file in the current menu. User may finds out the firmware version of the NetProbe Lite of its IP. put <client’s file route> : This command ask the client to copy its specific file route to the Server point. Use this to upload the latest firmware to your NetProbe Lite quit : This command allow the user to logout and close the FTP connection. Illustration: The picture shows, that the latest NetProbe Lite firmware file uploaded from the local computer located in (c:\work\netagent\prjs\nag\2.32.DK520.bin) to the NetProbe Lite with an IP address 192.168.50.179 Method 4: Using IE Browser This method uses IE to update the latest firmware. Open IE, then type in the account, password and NetProbe Lite IP address to be updated in the following format, ftp://<username>:<password>@<NetProbe Lite IP address>.
